Yes, they only do one race.

 

Hope we can convert more South American roller skaters into speed skaters

37.12 PB for Miho Takagi! Didn't see that coming!

 

That flying lap was damn-near Pyeongchang-level Kodaira stuff.

Takagi and Herzog both incredibly fast so early in the competition.

Lol the starter in the women's 500m is incompetent. He held McLean and de Jong for ages, and both of them visibly moved before the gun.

Epic false start for Michelle de Jong and nothing done about it

[NearPup 3,249]

McLean really went above and beyond to ensure I didn't owe anyone money.

Dubreuil false started but de Jong and McLean didn't? Sure. Some people on Reddit were trying to argue the system was entirely automated so there was no controversy here, I'm having serious trouble believing that.

I don't watch enough speed skating to have a clue what is controversial here or not

I wish I could be nonchalant about anything as Takagi is about leading right now
